Question One
Hallucinogenic substances applied with individuals from different cultures aimed at
gaining spiritual insights. According to Brezina, (2017), the drugs made them hallucinate thus
handling the uncertainties that impacted their daily affairs. The hallucinations allowed the

and illnesses.
Hallucinogens act the same on human beings whether they occur naturally or
developed in the laboratory. According to Brezina, (2017), the drugs cause psychological
impacts on the lives of individuals including seizures, heart attack and blood pressure. The
impact of hallucinogens varies from one person to another unlike contemporary drugs.
